Chapter Twenty-Five: My Position

(Thank you God for helping me remake the cover!Tears!)

Wang Nanqian only felt that the atmosphere in the practice room had become indescribably weird, and he regretted why he said such things to Kim Taeyeon. It's good to let that woman be in a daze with the studs, why do you have to force an explanation?

Looking at the man who was standing in place with his lips pouted, stared at by himself, and looking at his nervous expression, Kim Taeyeon's original dissatisfaction and resentment gradually dissipated, and he felt amused for a while. She put the sun-shaped stud earrings back in the box and teased the man in front of her: "Nanqian Oppa only remembered to use honorifics at this time, why can't you remember that I am a senior when you just quarreled with me?"

Hearing such a question, Wang Nanqian was also in a trance, from the time this woman entered the practice room and watched him practice dance, he had a feeling as if he had returned to four or five years ago, and the familiar atmosphere made him unconsciously forget to talk to this woman about honorifics. At that time, the scene in the practice room every day was almost no different from the scene that had just happened: after the practice class, the male trainees who practiced together left one after another, and the night became deeper and deeper, and finally he was the only one who was still sweating in the practice room. Then, at some point, a female trainee, who has few friends and doesn't like to talk much in the company, will open the door and appear behind him, handing him a towel after a while.

That towel seemed to be the first thing she gave herself? How many times did he treat Kim Taeyeon to dessert for this towel? How many times did he bring her supper? At that time, he was more concerned about the affairs of this ostracized little woman than his own affairs, why did he do that kind of thing at that time? Was it because he saw his own shadow in this woman?

When did this stuffy jar who was holding everything in his heart start to become intimate with him? When did she gradually start to come to him to confide in her thoughts and troubles? When he first came into contact with Kim Taeyeon, he never thought that he and Kim Taeyeon, a woman, would come to this point.

I still remember the first time he greeted Kim Taeyeon, the woman just glanced at him, and turned away without even saying a word: at that time, he thought that his Korean was not good, and he said something strange to make the other party angry. Later, I consulted Park So-yeon Nuna and found out that she didn't say anything wrong at all, but Kim Tae-yeon, a woman, was very resistant to outsiders.

is obviously lamenting the past with Kim Taeyeon, but at this moment, he inexplicably recalled that at that time, his skin was not as fair as it is now, his appearance was not as delicate as it is now, and his figure was not as charming as it is now. Compared to Kim Taeyeon and these women in the current girlhood, Park So-yeon was the female trainee who was closest to him back then, and this Nuna, who entered the company on the same day as him, was like his real sister: there was one thing that Kim Taeyeon didn't know, the first towel he got was not from her, but from the woman who was now a stranger to him.

The fate of people is really too complicated, and in this big drama there will always be a plot that you would never expect, who would have thought that the relationship between him and Park So-yeon and Kim Tae-yeon would be so reversed?

"Nam Cheon Oppa, what are you thinking?" The man stared at the floor and didn't know what he was thinking, which made Kim Taeyeon a little worried. She's just joking, he's not going to take it seriously, is he?

"Huh? it's okay...... It's just that I remembered a lot of things from the past," Wang Namqian suddenly woke up from the memories of the past when she heard Kim Tae-yeon's doubtful voice, "I remembered the scene when I took the initiative to talk to you for the first time, and I was a little emotional, so I was really embarrassed." ”

Kim Taeyeon couldn't help but laugh out loud, and she remembered the scene very clearly: "A person who speaks Korean is completely incomprehensible, and he runs to you recklessly, opens his mouth and says, 'Let's be friends', what girl wouldn't want to be crooked?"

"That sentence was taught to me by someone else! How long have I been in Korea at that time!" I was embarrassed, Kim Taeyeon was right, but his Korean level at that time was really not good, and he couldn't properly express his true meaning in a more reasonable language.

The man's embarrassed expression made Kim Taeyeon let out her standard laugh again: "Who taught you that? That person is hurting you, right?"

Who can speak a foreign language very proficiently at once? Can't you understand the feelings of a foreigner? Feeling that continuing to talk about it will only make him more embarrassed, he ignored Kim Tae-yeon's question and tried to turn the subject back to reality: "Do you still like birthday presents?"

The box in her hand has not been closed yet, and the pair of earrings are still shining in the light, and Kim Taeyeon can also see that the material and workmanship of these earrings are not very good, but she still smiles happily: "Did you ask your EXO agent Oppa to go out and buy it? His vision is still very good, I like it, thank you." ”

Agent: Oppa, Lim Hyun-kyun, Kim Tae-yeon, are you kidding?

"What are you talking about? I personally went to Dongdaemun to buy this, Dongdaemun, is it Dongdaemun?" Wang Nanqian felt that this woman was really inexplicable, her legs were weak when she ran in the shopping city, she actually felt that she asked Lin Xuanjun to go out to buy it?

"Nam Cheung Oppa, did you buy it yourself?" Kim Taeyeon obviously didn't expect this man to run out to buy her a birthday gift in person, and he is no longer the trainee of the year: although he has not officially debuted yet, EXO has also accumulated a lot of popularity now, and Kim Taeyeon knows very well the danger of running to a crowded place like Dongdaemun as a member who has been made public.

"What do you think? I personally selected and bought this gift. "It's true that I bought it myself, but I picked it out

The person with this pair of studs is Park Chulong's girl, so it shouldn't be a big deal to tell a little lie in such a small place, right? Kim Taeyeon and Park Chulong don't seem to know each other very well, so there is no need to worry about the danger of revealing the stuffing.

"Oh, Nam Kyun Oppa, when did you become so concerned about my affairs?" Kim Taeyeon's heart swelled with an indescribable feeling, this man has been deliberately alienating himself since the Girls' Generation fire, how could he deliberately run out to buy a birthday gift for himself? Not to mention that what he bought back was a small piece of jewelry that was close to his body, and the average man gave this kind of thing to a girl, doesn't it have some special meaning?

Suddenly feeling that her face seemed to be a little hot, she quickly lowered her head and pretended to tidy up her clothes, covering her face with her hair. However, Kim Taeyeon waited for a long time and didn't hear the other party respond to her words, she glanced at it quietly full of confusion, and found that the man was staring at the screen of the phone with a smiling expression. What's the matter with this man? I'm talking to him, how can his mind fly somewhere else?

'Oppa, I practiced dancing with Shibu Kiga again today. Before going back to the dormitory, I met the seniors of EXO at the door of the company, but there were only five of them, Qian Oppa, do you have any other work today? Why didn't you tell me yesterday? ’

The girl Bae Joo-hyun has to send him a message every night, and it has been going on for a long time unconsciously, and Wang Nanqian herself has gradually gotten used to it. What she sends every day is some trivial things or anecdotes between her and Jiang Shiqi or Jin Yilin, and it is often mixed with some concern for her recent situation: this girl's unique carefulness makes him feel that Pei Zhuhyun's delicate and cute little face greets him in front of his eyes when he sees this information.

Just when he didn't know how to respond to Kim Taeyeon's somewhat elusive words, he received this message, and Wang Nanqian took the opportunity to take the mobile phone in front of him: Today, this message was sent very late, probably she just took a shower and was about to go to bed, right?

What should I reply? He mentally organized the words as he touched his finger to the screen of his phone.

"I didn't have any other itinerary today, so I didn't go with the members because I had to practice dancing......

After only a few characters, Wang Nanqian already felt that something was wrong, the faint smell of perfume wafted to his nose from a very close distance, and the bright light on the mobile phone screen was slightly blocked. He subconsciously raised his head, and Kim Taeyeon's pretty face with bulging cheeks was in front of him: this woman only wore light makeup today, although she was not as charming and moving as she usually saw on TV, but she also had a different kind of beauty.

Leaning too close - this is a foul behavior, Wang Nam-qian can even see the delicate skin on Kim Taeyeon's face covered by the foundation, he feels his heart beat faster in an instant, and the whole person subconsciously leans back.

"Who are you messaging with? It's so important that your seniors dare not respond when they talk to you?" The man's reaction was too big, and his hand holding the phone suddenly rose to Kim Taeyeon's eyes because of this action. Originally a little curious, Kim Taeyeon reached out and copied the other party's close mobile phone with a joking mentality.

What is this? Looking at the content displayed on the screen, Kim Taeyeon was stunned.

She is a woman herself, and she is a sensitive woman, how can she not understand the woman's mind? Even through the screen, she can see what kind of feelings the sender of this message has towards the owner of this mobile phone. She had heard the name Bae Joo-hyun and had seen it a few times, and in her impression she was a very beautiful and likable female trainee.

In the past, when they were all trainees, this man was very popular among female trainees, and his gentle personality and thoughtfulness towards girls made him look different from those Korean trainees with machismo personalities. As a person who has been standing by his side and watching him, Kim Taeyeon thinks that she knows this man very well, and she knows that his whole mind is on the dream of debut: this is why he has not even been in a relationship for many years.

But now...... Will he still be the man with penetrating eyes before? He has long been unable to stand by his side all the time, and in the past two years, has the girl named Bae Joo-hyun occupied the position he once was?

My place has been taken by someone else? That's my place! Kim Tae-yeon suddenly felt a little dissatisfied, a little jealous, and she even found herself a little angry. As if to confirm something, she raised her chin proudly and glared fiercely at the man in front of her who was smiling bitterly: "Nam Qian Oppa, are you dating this child named Bae Joo-hyun?"

"No, what are you thinking?" his expression looked so natural, as if he wasn't lying.

"And what's the deal with that information?"

"Ahhun, this kid may be older than the other children, she doesn't usually have many friends, and she doesn't like to get along with other children very much. I used to take care of her before, so I might feel closer to me, right?"

The situation of this girl named Bae Joo-hyun sounds a little similar to herself back then, she has been ostracized by others, and she has a bad life in the company...... In the past two years, she and Girlhood have been very busy, but she didn't expect that someone would be so silent, and she didn't expect it at all, to gradually take her place: when they were both trainees, she knew that she was the only one, even after her debut, she still knew that she was the only one, and now for the first time, she seemed to be no longer the only one.

Is it a woman's desire for exclusivity? Kim Taeyeon can't tell what kind of complicated feelings she has in her heart about the current loss, but the inexplicable panic makes her realize that she has discovered something she has never been aware of:

She couldn't tolerate someone taking her place beside him, no matter who she was.

Kim Taeyeon held the phone that didn't belong to her and pursed her lips tightly.
